An amazing genesis in the next chapter of anomaly fighters, Primeval New World's pilot episode does not disappoint. As a huge fan of the original series, I was scared to death that PNW would ruin the franchise. I was DEAD. WRONG. The new team is great, with dynamic and interesting characters and the promise of the chemistry between the team that made the original Primeval the masterpiece that is was. The creatures are spectacular, surpassing the original and offering some of the best special effects you will see on television. The plot, while containing the necessary exposition, is engaging. The last 10 minutes of the episode delivers what the fans wanted, and even what the fans didn't know they would want until they saw it. A brief but brutal clash between a Pteranodon and a Utahraptor, a chilling flashback to the death of Evan's wife at the jaws of a hungry Albertosaurus, and a mysterious reveal in the last minutes of the episode that will leave you hungry for next week's journey into the Primeval universe. A must see.
